Great place to stay on a budget. It is rather small , but has all thats necessary for budget travellers as a place to stay in an expensive part of the world . It is not luxurious , not roomy , but comefortable and clean and offers a lovely breakfast in the morning. The staff are friendly , it has a bar , but to my knowledge no parking , but we didn't have a car , so I don't know about that

The staff were phenomenally helpful. They scheduled my airport shuttle pick-up and helped me with my luggage storage post-check-out. The hotel is aging and modest, but within easy walking distance of the main tourist attractions.

I have stayed at this hotel many times for work. The staff are really helpful. Breakfast has lots of selection, and is very fresh. My favourite is a bowl of the natural yoghurt with a dollop of the rhubarb compote generously ladeled in there… maybe a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar on top. Heaven. Also, Icelandic bread & butter (“Smjör”) is iconic. You won’t regret putting the diet on hold for Smjör. The bedrooms at Cabin are European, so compact but clean and quiet. The staff really helped me with everything I need. Cabin is 20 to 30 minutes walk downtown depending on which bit of downtown you want to go to. I can strongly recommend Kronan supermarket for supplies (90 seconds walk!). Or Hygge café for snuggly coffee and pastries (with a hip Icelandic crowd). Plus the “Borg 29” markethall is just across the road, if you want to mix it up a bit and try one of the cool Icelandic food halls / beer halls - very fun.

Disliked: Staff & service
The receptionist, older woman, that checked us in did NOT greet us and was not very friendly, and neither was the other receptionist, younger heavy set girl, whom we asked for extra towel the next day, was not pleasant at all. The gentlemen with long hair that checked us out on our last day was extremely friendly with big smile on his face. The room was very small, extremely noisy from other guests. It did not have a window, it had a small window that leads to the hallway so you can't see the outside world. Very uneasy feeling and stuffy, without any fresh air.

Nice hotel with very good location

We got a superior room and it was definitely better than the standard room we had the night before. Way more space to live. The room was very nice and comfy. The service of the staff at the reception and lobby was great. Hotel is very well located too.
